Not sure if serious, but the SS wasn’t manual only and the 6-speed auto had to have a take rate of about 9:1 for the vehicles sold. 

I’d go for the Hail Mary: Manual ONLY. At least then you’ll know how people feel about manuals. Because if you sell both, the auto will be the choice 80%+ of the time. People will rationalize about “sitting in traffic” or whatever.

How is updating the highest selling, most important model in the lineup "torpedoing the company"? Are we just completely giving up on logic and going for the most Jalop takes?

Why would you pay ahead on a 0% loan?

You’re correct that they’re an advance on a refundable tax credit (one that can be given to you as refund cash, not just one that reduces your tax burden). But it can’t be taken back when you file your taxes. In essence, it can only help you now and it can’t hurt you later.

It’s getting stupid with the mask situation. Dangerously stupid.

Right, I wouldn’t rub my shirt on other people, but I wouldn’t necessarily treat it any differently if I’m already sick. We’re not recommending that people immediately wash their clothes when returning from a grocery trip. I’m wondering why the mask is any different.

That sucks. The social stigma will be “look at this jerk depriving medical people from that mask”. Maybe make a cheap and nearly useless cloth mask to cover the real mask? Or just say f**k it, and wear them anyway and take the side eye? WWBD (What would Bane do)?

Wash or clean your hands BEFORE and after you remove your mask. Think about it, if your hands are contaminated, do you want them touching anywhere near your face? No.

Is anybody else now regretting donating all their masks to nearby hospitals? Kind of wish I’d kept one or two for myself, now that it’s being recommended I wear one.

Maybe I’m a piece of shit, but I think the HOA is being reasonable here. They have a policy regarding RVs in their community. The nurse and her husband chose to violate that policy without reaching out to the HOA in advance. HOA enforced their policy. Nurse and husband reached out to the HOA, which told them that they

That’s the free market.

Ugh. This again.

“As usual with “this” General Motors, things just never seem to work out. They said they were going to give us 40,000 much needed Ventilators, “very quickly”. Now they are saying it will only be 6000, in late April, and they want top dollar. Always a mess with Mary B. Invoke “P”.” 

None of our car seats have instructed us to use both LATCH and seat belt a the same time.  It’s either/or, plus the rear tether anchor in some cases.

The Latch system is limited to 65 lbs total weight (including 25lb car seat) so the child weight limit is 40lbs. The NHTSA recommends using a carseat up to age 7. Do you know how much a 5 or 6 year old weighs? Do the math, the LATCH system doesn’t work for the entire time a child should be in a carseat.

Depending on the weight of your child, LATCH alone isn’t sufficient for many forward-facing car seat installations. Using the seat belt is required to secure the car seat in those cases. At least, that’s been the case with the Chicco and Graco car seats we’ve owned over the last 7 years.

Also a classic example of “I’m smart enough about a few things, so clearly I’m a genius who can do everything.”

Dealers don’t pay interest on the loans right away. They typically get 60-90 days to sell a car before they have to start paying interest on it. That’s why they push so hard to sell certain cars. You could have 2 identical cars, one that’s been there 3 days, another that’s been their 95 days. The dealer will always

Notice it has 4 wheels as well.
